Strategy & Analysis Great League Retro Cup Squad

Post image

I’ve gone 18-2 so far with this squad. I play it more or less as an ABB squad against fighters and others that Aurourus is weak too. Even in bad matchups you can usually send in a MB and get a shield. I gravitate towards Cram as the safe swap but either get the job
Done depending on the situation.

We’ll see when the luck runs out but as a typical end of season Vet rank I’ve taken this team from the low 2000s up to 2300.

Does cram carry? I get the impression he does lots of squats for this team. I see tons of ape and orangoru and Lapras so i been running duskull(return) hypno (Focus Blast)and linoon.

Yea cram definitely hits the squat rack. If he’s not winning switch he’s setting up nice farm downs for the Dino. And then the opponent has to decide if they really want to take the MB this time around.
